Coaticook area Senior Citizen’s Club

Our meeting of September 17 was held at the Elie Carrier Center. Our president, Penny Fowler, welcomed everyone and thanked members for their donations. Some members had invited friends. We had a good group for our first meeting of the season.

Grace was recited by Ruth Charleau. Members with birthdays this month were Kathy Bellows, Joan Baldwin, Shirley Desruisseaux, Janet Shepherd and Suzanne Martin. We all sang Happy Birthdays. Participation prizes were won by Rebecca Charleau and Pat Bryant.

Penny passed around pictures of babies with humorous quotes. She also became her alter ego, Mrs. Keezer, and recited a text of the good old days and taking our time.

Door prizes were won by Tina Whipple, Ketha Woodman, Scott Kirby, Marry Cutler, Monika King, Mary Lessard, Brian Larue, Julie Champagne and Maryann Beaudin.

Next month’s meeting will be October 15. Halloween is this month and it would be nice if you wore something to mark the occasion. We asked you for suggestions to make the meetings enjoyable, so please write them down and give them to Penny. We still have the free donation tables. The main meal will be chicken pie. You will be receiving a call from one of our members to confirm your presence.
